Now for Pokemon Y, since I'm DL'in it, no need to preorder for me.

Just a forewarning, Pokemon games on the same 3DS system wont be able to communicate with each other, so all your future pokemom games will have to be bought in physical form if you want them all to be able to interact with each other.

Ah got it, though don't they have to mail it to you, meaning you wont get the game until a few days after release?

No, definitely not. You can wither pre-order online (in which case that would happen) or pre-order at the store. In which case mailing wouldn't happen and you can drive your happy little self to the store and pick it up.

You say no then you say it would happen lol. Given this thread I was thinking of Amazon specifically. Sorry I shoulda made that clearer.

You made is seem as though you thought mailing was the only way, in which I said no... there are two ways.

Well, in that case, yeah. I haven't heard of Amazon ever opening up retail stores.

Gewd, geewwwd! I can already see the inevitable meltdowns after people download both versions so I'm doing what I can to prevent such a scenario!

Amazon usually offers release day delivery, meaning they mail it out early so you get it the same day it launches. Well, on Playstation/Xbox stuff, anyway--they probably screw with Nintendo by sending stuff out a week late.

I once had two games in a row show up a day late, though. I called to complain and got Amazon hush money (credit) for it. That was nice.
